What to expect
Preparing for the Appointment
Before you arrive, our office management team will confirm with you the date, time and location of your appointment. You will be requested to do some initial paperwork.
You may download your initial paperwork and fill it out prior to coming to the office. If you’d prefer to fill it out in our office, please arrive 15-20 minutes early.
When You Arrive
It’s a good idea to plan to arrive a few minutes early for your appointment to complete forms if you haven’t already done so.
When you enter our offices, make yourself comfortable while you wait. The doctor will greet you and invite you into one of our private evaluation rooms. Your comfort is important to us so please speak up about what we can do to make you comfortable.
Your Session
During your session, you will meet with one of our highly experienced doctors. This evaluation will be a combination of parent/caregiver and child interview, observation, and play.
Questions will pertain to family, parent, and child medical history, developmental milestones, cognitive functioning, behavior, communication and socialization, daily activities, home environment, education, mental health, and childhood adverse experiences.
We ask that parents bring with them all pertinent information relating to their child’s health and current functional status. This may include reports from doctors, psychologists, and social workers, screening results, school paperwork and individualized education plans (IEPs), and documentation regarding any previous diagnoses.
Payment
We proudly accept the following insurance:
- Inland Empire Health Plan (IEHP)
We also offer self-pay. Please contact the office for pricing and more information.
Payment can be made before or at the end of the session.
We want your experience to be easy. One of the ways we do that is help you navigate the insurance maze. We will check your benefits, get you scheduled, and bill your insurance company.
